Unbeaten Roma, who top of the Serie A, are reportedly readying a new four-year contract for Pjanic worth £2.5million a season, despite his contract expiring in 18 months’ time.Pjanic will be a key player for Bosnia next summer in the World Cup in Brazil, having already scored three goals in his nation’s successful group stage.

United, City and Spurs will continue to monitor the progress of the £20million-valued midfielder, who has helped his side to the top of Serie A with three goals in 12 appearances this term.
